"Now, you need to come with us. Out of the city. We want to save you, please don't question us just yet."
Kyron was very impatient now, things haven't gone the way he wanted them to. A new member joined them though, which compensated for everything. Who knows what kind of useful powers this man could help them with. Maybe he was a good fighter as well.
Kyron got out of the carriage, grabbing his bag and pulling his brown disguise cloak over himself, and climbed onto the front next to Merek.
"What's all the fuss abou'?"
"He's a part of our guild now. He also has magic abilities. Let's go Merek, we need to move."
The carriage jerked forward as the horses started to pull it on the streets.
"I need to tell you a couple of things. Merek, you know people here. You know more people in this city than I ever will, so I have yet another favour to ask you. You must tell people about the Haze, you must tell them so if the time will come, they will know on who's side to stand. Be really careful though, if they hear you talking about it, you will most probably get killed. You don't have to do it, as it endangers your life as well as your family's. I have prepared something to get you out of trouble though."
Kyron pulled out a few shiny metal rings, decorated with golden linings and runes.
"This ring will protect you from major physical harm and will direct any attack back towards the enemy. Don't go jumping off buildings though, that would probably still kill you. The fact that the rings look very good is just an added bonus. I have some for your wife and older children as well, just in case."
Kyron handed the rings to Merek who took them and after a pause, put them is a small purse. Which he hid under his coat.
"I'll do my best Kyron. I've lived through many adventures throughout my life, the time has come for me to do something bigger, something more important."
Kyron put a hand on Merek's shoulder, not saying anything. They were both quiet as the carriage moved along. Until, at the gates, two guards stopped them.
"Whatcha doing out 'ere so late? Speak fast, I'm tired."
Kyron's palm slid to find the hilt of Purity, his sword, just in case things went bad, but Merek was faster.
"We're going to visit my neice, she just gave birth to her first son. It was quite an unexpected news, imagine. She leaves to be an apprentice at the-"
"Oh its you Merek, I'm sorry but I don't feel like talking too much now."
Kyron knew Merek was the right person to ask for this job. The other guard however, did his job slightly better.
"Why do you have three horses?"
"Gifts, to my nephew. The thin one, I'm just taking her because she really doesn't like the city, she doesn't eat."
"Hm... you can pass."
The carriage moved forward. The second guard peeked in the carriage window as it went past but seemed to have not noticed anything he didn't like.
They were finally out of the city walls. Kyron knew though, that this was only the beginning.
